Sunday Pt1

Up late. Well after 8am anyway. A nice lie in.

Looking through the patio doors to see... Not a lot.



Just the sea. Later there would be the odd oil rig.

Breakfast was in the Peninsular Restaurant where our freedom dining allows us to eat. The freedom bit is time rather than being stuck to a set meal time.

Then a wander. Then a snooze. Then lunch again Peninsular Restaurant.

I had pate and the veggie pasta option.

At both meals we had met and sat with other people from across the UK and at lunch a guy from Texas who lives in England. All very nice and we chatted along.

We searched out the promenade deck but it is not possible to do a full 360° trip of the ship.

We did find the theatre where we caught the end of the port information.

As tonight is Black Tie we need to be spruced up and out to shake the Captain's hand at about 6pm or so.

Blog moved to Travellerspoint

By
I decided that trying to maintain different platforms for the blog(s) was getting difficult to maintain and so I have decided to move all the travel blogs to Travellerspoint. All the vehicle specific blogs such as "Suzi Triplo" will stay in Blogger. Only any that are travel oriented such as "Cruising" and "Devall Travel" have been given up and entries in future will be in  The new home of Devall Travels . Travellerspoint

Cruise 2022?

By
Given the problems with cruising at the start of the pandemic, I expect a lot of people have decided to take a back seat and let it pass for a while. I have seen a few programmes on the TV where river cruising has been the main subject.  Either the Rhine or the Danube.  Both look attractive if not a little pricey. As with most things it is cheaper to go outside the school holidays.  As I work in Education I have a contract that means I have school holidays off. That is really good as I finish in late July and go back in early September after a long summer.  Of course, I get paid less than I used to when I was on a 52-week contract with paid leave. Claire is already retired and able to go at any time.  I retire on 23rd December 2021.  Unless the Government changes it again I am a wage slave a little longer! So it makes sense to look at cruises and holidays in 2022 when it will be cheaper outside the tie of the school holiday system! Where to g...
